Uncovering Dimensions of Culture in Underperforming Group Homes for People with Severe Intellectual Disability

Abstract: Culture recurs as an important but under-investigated variable associated with resident outcomes in supported accommodation for people with intellectual disability. This study aimed to conceptualize the potential dimensions of culture in all group homes and describe the culture in underperforming group homes. A secondary analysis, using an inductive interpretative approach, was undertaken of a large qualitative data set from a study that had used ethnographic and action research methods to explore the quality … Show more

“…In an earlier study, group home residents ageing with ID accredited staff with increased importance as they and other residents became older (38). Additionally, staff perspectives, such as working methods, ambitions and values, have been shown to be important for what staff actually do (66) and thus for residents' wellbeing (13). By combining participant observations with qualitative interviews we were able to delve deeper into the understanding of the phenomenon being studied (41)(42).…”

“…En motsägelse i sammanhanget är hur boendeinformanterna i studie I kan sägas hänsyfta till aktiviteter utmärkande för den tredje åldern i sina beskrivningar av att vara och bli äldre, exempelvis då de talar om aktiviteter relaterade till det fria pensionärslivet och ett hälsosamt leverne. Detta tyder på att det snarare är i gruppbostadens kultur (se resonemang av Felce, Lowe & Jones, 2002;Bigby et al, 2012) som det saknas referenser till den tredje åldern och inte i de boendes erfarenheter av att åldras och vara äldre. Tredje ålderns aktiviteter verkar snarare vara något som de boende förväntar sig av sin ålderdom, ett annat exempel på diskrepansen mellan de boende och personalens erfarenheter.…”

“…Som tidigare nämnts är gruppbostadens personal bärare av den formella och informella kultur som inramar och formar det stöd som ges till de boende (Felce, Lowe & Jones, 2002;Bigby et al, 2012). Avhandlingen visar att gruppbostadens formella kultur är svag i förhållande till att åldras och vara äldre med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning.…”
